under Bush/Cheney. I recall the $20 six packs of coke, $25/bag of laundry charged to DoD, and the far too many dead troops electrocuted in their shower stalls because of sloppy incompetent Halliburton electrical contractors.

More good news




Schlumberger, the world's largest oil field services company, said Friday it will "immediately suspend" new investments and technology deployments to Russia.

The Houston- and Paris-based company joins a growing list of companies that are backing away from Russia as its war with Ukraine escalates. Earlier this month, Ukrainian-American protesters stood in front of the company's Houston office and called on it to stop working with Russian-owned energy companies.

Some of the world's biggest oil companies also have committed to pulling out of Russia, the world's second largest oil producer after the United States. Exxon Mobil said it would cease oil production in Russia. BP and Shell announced plans to withdraw from oil and gas partnerships in the country.

Schlumberger said it would continue to meet its existing obligations in Russia.

This is not a complete pullout but is a good start
